Luofu's siege was too fast, but there were still people in the city who escaped through other gates.

Li Tong has three counties, and the total number of troops is only [-]. Originally, Yiju County was stationed at [-], Shenbio was stationed at [-], and Niyang was stationed at [-].

He personally led [-] soldiers to Yiju, and there were [-] soldiers in Yiju, including [-] soldiers in Yiju County, but Yijucheng was attacked by Chen Lu for a while, and hundreds of defenders were killed or injured.

After Li Tong successfully entered Yiju City, he immediately asked the guard captain Zhang Li about the situation in the city, and he was relieved when he learned that there were not many casualties in the city.

He led people to patrol the top of the city, and found that there was no enemy outside the city, so he ordered his subordinates to rest.

He felt it was normal for Li Tong to support Yiju so smoothly, but all of this was planned by Liu Zhang.

When he ordered Chen Lu to lead the army to attack Yiju, he also ordered Luo Fu to lie in ambush outside Niyang City.

As long as Li Tong dared to lead his troops, Luo Fu would take advantage of the situation and take down Niyang City.

Similarly, if Li Tong does not come to support with troops, then Liu Zhang will increase his troops and capture Yiju City first.

Although Yiju is big, the county seat of Yiju is not big.

On the second day, Liu Zhang sent several military marquises to attack in all directions and began to seize the remaining cities in Yiju County.

Originally there were [-] defenders in Yiju County, [-] were in the county seat, and the remaining [-] were in other cities.

The two hundred defenders had no problem maintaining order in other small towns on weekdays. Together with Liu Zhang's army, they immediately surrendered.

When Liu Zhang was in the camp, he was very happy when he learned that Luo Fu had successfully captured Niyang City.

He ordered the other Sima Zhang, Qin and Zhang Kui to lead the army, and interspersed to the two small towns north of Yiju.

They occupied two small cities on the main road, built a line of defense here, sent out scouts along the way, and cut off the connection between Yiju and the north.

There are three counties in the south of Beidi County, of which Niyang and Yiju counties are [-] miles apart, but Shenbi is [-] miles north of Yiju.

Liu Zhang got the news that Niyang was breached, and Li Tong in Yiju City also got it half an hour later, but when he wanted to send troops out of the city to retake Niyang City, it was already impossible.

Because the defenders on the top of the city came to report that there were enemies on three sides outside the city, only the north wall, and there were no enemies.

Li Tong entered the city through the north gate last night.

No matter how stupid he was, he knew he had been tricked.

This plan is a plan to divert the tiger away from the mountain.

Tigers are invincible in the mountains and forests. When they come out of the mountains and forests, there is no shelter, and their fighting power is reduced by half.

Knowing the seriousness of the matter, Li Tong immediately dispatched scouts to the north, telling the Shenbi defenders to guard the city and not to come out.

Then, after his scouts left Yiju, they were all intercepted and killed by the scouts from Zhang Qin and Zhang Kuidan. None of the scouts broke through the line of defense and arrived at Shenbi.

After Luofu captured Niyang County, he got Li Tong's seal in the county government.

When Liu Zhang ordered Zhang Qin and Zhang Kui to seal off the north of Yiju, he also sent Zhang Jie to Shenbi County.

Relying on Niyang Jiangjun and Li Tong's seal letter, Zhang Jie easily fraudulently opened the gate of Canbio City, then led his army into the city and captured Canbio County.

Liu Zhang still had [-] troops in his hands, so he continued to besiege Yiju.

There are three walls, one side is the main attack, and the other side is a feint attack. There are no soldiers and horses outside the north gate.

Three days later, Liu Zhang appeared outside the south gate and asked Li Tong to come out and talk to him.

Li Tong was trapped in Yiju County, and he didn't know who was attacking him, so he climbed to the top of the south gate.

"Who is outside the city?"

Li Tong saw several cavalrymen fifty steps away from the city, the man in the middle was wearing gorgeous armor, and the knights on both sides were guarding each other.

"Jing Zhao Yin Taishou Liu Zhang!"

"Why attack my city for no reason?"

"I'm here to save the general!"

"It's a joke, I have five thousand soldiers under my command and three counties, why do I need your help?" Li Tong shouted.

"General Li is wrong. Now you have no more than three thousand soldiers and only one city. You are like a trapped beast. If you don't surrender, all the soldiers behind you will be buried with you." Liu Zhang replied loudly.

"Hmph, why is this unreasonable? If you hadn't attacked me, how could I have done this." Li Tong said angrily.

"The general's words are wrong. Don't you hear that the man is innocent and pregnant with the crime?"

Liu Zhang smiled and said, "Although the general has three counties and five thousand soldiers, he has no talent or virtue. How can he defend it? Sooner or later the general's foundation will be taken away. Now I, Liu Zhang, come here. If you surrender, I will protect your life. And enjoy the wealth."

"Excessive words!" Li Tong didn't expect that Liu Zhang would be so disgusted, he clearly came to attack him, but he said he was here to save him.

"Li Tong, you are sitting in an isolated city and there is no danger to defend it. Do you really want to wipe out your subordinates?" Liu Zhang shouted loudly towards the top of the city.

"The prefect will ask you again, whether to surrender or not?"

"No surrender!" Li Tong replied stiffly.

However, he didn't know that the way many soldiers behind him looked at him had changed.

It became less respectful than before, but a little fierce.

Liu Zhang rode his horse back to the army formation, and Chen Lu and other generals approached.

"My lord, will Li Tong surrender?"

"He won't surrender!" Liu Zhang raised the corner of his mouth and smiled.

"I knew it was useless to persuade them to surrender. It would be better to attack the city directly." Chen Lu said.

"Whoever said that persuading surrender is useless, you can try another day."

Chen Lu took the order and began to command the army to attack the city. One day later, Yiju City was still not captured.

Although Yiju City was not breached, there were hundreds of casualties, and the defenders in the city were very thoughtful.

They already knew that they were besieged in the city, with no reinforcements outside, and the enemy was attacking fiercely. If they continued to stay in the city, waiting for them would only lead to death.

After nightfall, many soldiers secretly left the barracks, took ropes, and climbed out of the city wall.

Some fled Yiju City, while others went directly to Liu Zhang's barracks to surrender.

When it was dawn, Zhang Li, the captain of the guard of Yiju, reported to Li Tong that some soldiers were missing in the city, and he had already sent people to search the city.

Li Tong was about to explode, but unexpectedly a soldier walked over quickly.

"Report, the enemy army is attacking the city again."

"Quick, follow me to the top of the city!" Li Tong didn't care about these trivial matters, and immediately led the soldiers to the south gate.

He ordered Zhang Li to count the number of soldiers in the city, and found that there were less than 600 soldiers capable of fighting, including [-] wounded soldiers.

That day and night, more than [-] soldiers fled from the city.

After dawn, Zhang Li counted the number of soldiers again, and found that there were only [-] soldiers available for battle.

A large number of wounded soldiers stayed in the camp and could not go out to fight.

Chen Lu attacked the city again, and the resistance of the Yiju defenders was much lower than that of the previous two days, and they finally allowed them to attack the top of the city and seize the south gate.

Liu Zhang took advantage of the situation and stormed into the south gate, captured Yiju and captured Li Tong.

Li Tong and Zhang Li were brought before Liu Zhang.

When Li Tong saw Liu Zhang, he immediately shouted, "I am willing to surrender, I am willing to surrender!"

"Hahaha!"

Looking at the disheveled Li Tong, Liu Zhang smiled and said, "Li Tong, now that your city has been defeated, why surrender?"
